Tutti comes with a CRM your workflows fill in.
Zapier sends contacts on to a CRM you connect, or into Tables. Tutti’s workflows add people and companies to the CRM that comes with it, matched by email or domain so nobody is added twice.
Tutti’s browser agent clicks, types and reads pages.
Zapier’s own web step reads pages; clicking and typing go through Airtop, a separate service. In Tutti the browser agent is a step like any other.
